Before you choose
Entitlement calculations, funding fee exemptions and VA appraisal rules reward a loan officer who closes VA loans often.
- How many VA loans have you closed in the last year?
- Can you check my remaining entitlement and funding fee status?
- How do you handle a low VA appraisal or the tidewater process?
How this list is ranked
Specialty evidence carries the most weight (production data, then lender page, then self-reported). Loan officers must be licensed in KS or have a branch there. Then branch location, years licensed and profile completeness. Disciplinary actions lower the score and are always shown. No paid placement. Methodology.
Same list as JSON: /api/v1/loan-officers?specialty=va&state=KS. Not a lender. Not a referral service. Verify licenses at NMLS Consumer Access.
